Step Back in Time & Experience History

In 1864, delegates to the Charlottetown Conference arrived at the Historic Charlottetown Waterfront on board the HMCS Queen Victoria where today, stands Founders' Hall, Canada's Birthplace Pavilion. This heritage bilingual attraction tells the story of Canada from its inception in 1864 up until modern day.
